The text stresses the continuity between the quantum world and the classical world, which is merely an approximation to the quantum worldthe mathematical prerequisites are no more than simple vector algebra, taylor series expansion and the use of integrating factors to solve linear first order differential equationsdirac notation is used from the outset and students are trained to move easily from one representation to another, choosing whichever representation is best suited to a particular problema chapter is devoted to entanglement, quantum computation, density operators and their role in thermodynamics, and the measurement problemoxfam bookshop knutsford the physics of quantum mechanics aims to give students a good understanding of how quantum mechanics describes the material worldit stresses that stationary states are unphysical mathematical abstractions that enable us to solve the theory's governing equation, the time-dependent schroedinger equationscattering phenomena, including the origin of radioactivity, are handled early on in the accessible context of one dimension, and at the end of the book with some rigour in three dimensionsevery opportunity is taken to illustrate the emergence of the familiar classical, dynamical world through the quantum interference of stationary stateshydrogen and helium are discussed in some detail and it is shown that quantum mechanics enables us to understand the structure of the periodic table without engaging with the complexities of many-electron atomsname written on inside facing page see oxfam website for delivery information read morerigorous algebraic methods are preferred to the solution of partial differential equationsit shows that the theory follows naturally from the use of probability amplitudes to derive probabilitiesthe connections between observables, operators and transformations are clearly explained and the standard commutation rules derived from the properties of spacetime

Oxfam bookshop bloomsbury street the lankavatara sutra draws upon the concepts and doctrines of yogacara and buddha-naturein the sutra, the buddha asserts that all the objects of the world, and the names and forms of experience, are merely manifestations of the mind: on the contrary my teaching is based upon the recognition that the objective world, like a vision, is a manifestation of the mind itself; it teaches the cessation of ignorance, desire, deed and causality; it teaches the cessation of suffering that arises from the discrimination of the triple worldas to the first; he must recognise and be fully convinced that this triple world is nothing but a complex manifestation of one's mental activities; that it is devoid of selfness and its belongings; that there are no strivings, no comings, no goingsas to the third; he must recognise and patiently accept the fact that his own mind and personality is also mind-constructed, that it is empty of substance, unborn see oxfam website for delivery information read morehe must recognise and accept the fact that this triple world is manifested and imagined as real only under the influence of habit-energy that has been accumulated since the beginningless past by reason of memory, false-imagination, false-reasoning, and attachments to the multiplicities of objects and reactions in close relationship and in conformity to ideas of body-property-and-abodebecause the world is seen as being "mind-only" or "consciousness-only", all phenomena are void, empty of self (atman) and illusory: there are four things by the fulfilling of which an earnest disciple may gain self-realisation of noble wisdom and become a bodhisattva-mahasattva: first, he must have a clear understanding that all things are only manifestations of the mind itself; second, he must discard the notion of birth, abiding and disappearance; third, he must clearly understand the egolessness of both things and personsthe most important doctrine issuing from the lankavatara sutra is that of the primacy of consciousness (sktas to the second; he must recognise and be convinced that all things are to be regarded as forms seen in a vision and a dream, empty of substance, un-born and without self-nature; that all things exist only by reason of a complicated network of causationvijñana) and the teaching of consciousness as the only reality
